Troy, If you don't know Linux, you should learn it. There is a bootable Linux Distribution called Backtrack Linux (http://www.backtrack-linux.org) I haven't used this in quite some time, but found it had a lot of the most useful tools and is well documented . I'd also learn Metasploit, I see their name come up most often. It utilizes known vulnerabilities to deliver payloads gain further access. I haven't quite learned this as it can be complicated.
